That is good news! Do you have any other problem left?

P2P WARNING
-------------------
Going over your logs I noticed that you have uTorrent installed.

• Avoid gaming sites, pirated software, cracking tools, keygens, and peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing programs.
  
• They are a security risk which can make your computer susceptible to a wide variety of malware infections, remote attacks, exposure of personal information, and identity theft. Many malicious worms and Trojans spread across P2P file sharing networks, gaming and underground sites.
  
• Users visiting such pages may see innocuous-looking banner ads containing code which can trigger pop-up ads and malicious Flash ads that install viruses, Trojans and spyware. Ads are a target for hackers because they offer a stealthy way to distribute malware to a wide range of Internet users.
  
• The best way to reduce the risk of infection is to avoid these types of web sites and not use any P2P applications.

It is pretty much certain that if you continue to use P2P programs, you will get infected again.
I would recommend that you uninstall uTorrent, however that choice is up to you. If you choose to remove these programs, you can do so via Start > Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs.

If you wish to keep it, please do not use it until your computer is cleaned.


Your version of Java is out of date. Older versions have vulnerabilities that malicious sites can use to exploit and infect your system.

• Download the latest version of Java Runtime Environment (JRE) Version 7u3.
  
• Look for "JDK 7u3 (JDK or JRE).
  
• Click the "Download JRE" button at the right.
  
• Read the License Agreement, and then check the box that says: "Accept License Agreement".
  
  • Select "Windows x86 Offline" and click on jre-7-windows-i586.exe
• Save it to your desktop
  
• Close any programs you may have running - especially your web browser.
  
• Uninstall all older versions of Java (any item with Java Runtime Environment, JRE or J2SE in the name).
  
• Reboot your computer once all Java components are removed.
  
• Install the newest version by double clicking (run as Administrator for Windows Vista/Seven) the downloaded file.

Please launch MBAM, update it and run a full scan. Post me the resulting log.

Would you have any idea where I am getting these infected files from? I haven't been doing anything really except playing games and visiting trusted sites. Could it be a problem with chrome?

[Elise]

They may have been installed alongside a game, but are not really malicious, more undesirable.
